I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb

Lan'er moved her lips, suppressing the grievance in her heart, and squeezed out a smile, saying: "Thank you Miss Chang for your concern, I am really fine."

She clenched her hands nervously, thought over and over again, and said, "If you two ladies don't have anything urgent to do, wait until Miss Wen recovers from her injury and then leave the palace!"

Lan Er observed her surroundings and whispered, "You two girls are good people. This palace is like a man-eating beast! You two should leave as soon as possible."

The deep palace is a scourge, and Chang Yan is well aware of this.

However, Lan'er is the only one who dares to say this.

This little girl...

How dare you say it.

Chang Yan said nothing, concentrating on rubbing the medicated oil on her bruises and smoothing them away.

These injuries didn't look like they were caused by sharp weapons, but rather...

She lowered her head and looked at Lan'er.

His expression was gloomy, tears welled up in his eyes, but he didn't dare let them fall.

The bruises on the neck were relatively light. Looking down, one could slightly see those purple marks, which did not look like they were left by beatings or scolding.

Could it be...

Chang Yan had a bad feeling in her heart and didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Her hands began to tremble.

Lan'er is only fourteen years old this year. If it is really as she thinks... then wouldn't her life be ruined here?

"You all get down!"

Chang Yan shouted loudly, and the maid waiting outside was startled, then said "yes" and slowly retreated.

Outside the door, Wen Qingzhi saw the maids coming out and asked, "What happened?"

The maid shook her head, "I don't know, Miss Chang asked us to come out and wait."

Wen Qingzhi withdrew her gaze and walked into the house.

"What happened?"

She closed the door and looked at the two people in the room with a strange atmosphere.

Wen Qingzhi came up to them and was also shocked by the bruises exposed on Lan'er's body.

"How did this happen?"

Lan Er covered her mouth with her hands, choked with sobs and shook her head, "Young ladies, please don't ask."

She hurriedly put on her clothes and tidied herself up. "Thank you for the medicine, young lady. I still have things to do, so I'll take my leave now!"

After saying that, Lan'er turned and ran out.

After Lan'er left, Wen Qingzhi asked Chang Yan, "What happened?"

Chang Yan told Wen Qingzhi about the injuries she saw on Lan'er and couldn't help but frown, "She's only fourteen years old..."

"I've reached the age of marriage."

Wen Qingzhi looked calm and spoke indifferently, as if she didn't care about this.

Chang Yan had known her for a long time, so she naturally knew what kind of person she was.

She said, "Just now, Lan'er told me that after you get better, we should leave the palace immediately."

Wen Qingzhi raised an eyebrow and looked over, "Hmm?"

"She meant that everyone in the palace is a monster and it's not appropriate for us to be here."

Chang Yan sorted the medicine box, feeling unhappy. "You are cold-hearted but kind-hearted. In this deep palace, Lan'er is able to talk to us like this. She is a kind-hearted child."

The thought of that possibility made her heart ache.

Wen Qingzhi said nothing, "When did you become so sentimental?"

Chang Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You! Why are you like a fairy in heaven, not caring about the human world?"

Wen Qingzhi took a sip of hot tea and lowered her eyes. "There are so many things in the world, how can I take care of them all?"

"Since she is here, if she wants to survive, she must abide by the rules here."

"This is her life."

Wen Qingzhi's words explained Lan'er's life. Although her words were unpleasant to hear, they were all true.

It's not the two of them who are causing Lan'er to suffer now, but her parents and the world.

Noticing Chang Yan's worried expression, Wen Qingzhi said, "If you can help her, please do so within your ability."

Hearing this, the gloomy look on Chang Yan's face instantly disappeared, replaced by a happy look.

She ran over and hugged Wen Qingzhi, "Azhi, you are so nice! I knew you were a beautiful and kind person~"

Chang Yan hung on Wen Qingzhi, swaying and jumping happily on the spot. Wen Qingzhi smiled helplessly and did not pull her off.

This scene happened to be seen by Feng Yunsu who was pushing the door open.

It was the first time he saw Wen Qingzhi smiling and without any hostility.

There was a helpless smile on that already stunning face, which was quiet and charming, with a different charm.

However, in just a moment, he returned to normal.

Wen Qingzhi and the others also noticed him and came forward to greet him.

"I have met the emperor."

"Get up."

Feng Yunsu sat down freely and said nonchalantly, "It seems that he is almost well."

He looked at Wen Qingzhi's almost healed face and said, "It seems that the medicine is effective."

Wen Qingzhi's eyes flickered to the side, "Since the emperor is here, I will speak."

Feng Yunsu raised his eyebrows and moved the corners of his mouth slightly, indicating that she should continue.

"My injury has almost healed, and I would like to leave the palace in the next two days."
